WATCH OUT HALL OF FAME, HERE COMES HARVEY


Harvey Fierstein made his acting debut at La MaMa, E.T.C. in Andy Warhol's only play, Pork in 1971. Now, on January 28th he will be inducted into the Hall of Fame in ceremonies at Broadway’s Gershwin Theater. He has asked none other than Ellen Stewart to introduce him prior to receiving this high honor.
The theater's upper-lobby showcases the names of 466 previous Hall of Fame inductees. Also inducted on the 28th were John Cullum, Mel Gussow, Dana Ivey, Jack O'Brien, Peter Shaffer, Lois Smith, and Joseph Stein.
